The High Court of Karnataka on Friday declared as null and void the election of Prajwal Revanna of Janata Dal (Secular) from Hassan Lok Sabha constituency in the general elections held in April-May 2019 for indulging in a series of corrupt practices during the poll process.
Meanwhile, the court also rejected the plea of A. Manju, who had then unsuccessfully contested the elections from the Bhartiya Janata Party, to declare him as a returned candidate in place of Mr. Prajwal.
